Minnesota has a tough road ahead in 2011, as the Gophers have competitions scheduled against six of the teams listed among the top 25 in the Preseason Coaches’ Poll, including top-ranked UCLA.
“We are excited to be in the top 25 in the preseason coaches poll,” said head coach Meg Stephenson. “We’re also thrilled to be hosting the Big Ten Championships which we anticipate will be a very competitive competition.”
Minnesota kicks off the 2011 season with the annual Intrasquad Meet, an exhibition contest that will take place at the Sports Pavilion on January 1. The regular season will start at Ohio State on January 8, followed by the home opener against Iowa on January 15. A highlight of the 2011 season will be the Big Ten Championship, held in the Sports Pavilion on Saturday, March 19.
